— And so, we're giving you your first mission.

Magna said that confidently, hands on his hips annoucing the news.

— It had better be something worthy of me as a royal.

The girl said with a superior tone on her voice. 

— Yeah, yeah, you should be honored, you'll be hunting wild Boars in Saussy village!

Looking at the rewards, Yuhan was quite satisfied, some easy exp, and new monsters for his collection.

— What kind of lame mission is that?

Noelle said with a dissapointed face.

— What are you calling lame?!

The delinquent mage shouted at them.

— I can beat a wild boar with my fists!

Asta said confidently.

— Don't you dare underestimate wild boars!

Magna shouted again at them, but this time, Captain Yami stood up, blowing some smoke at their faces.

— Are you going to go, or are you going to die? which will it be?

At his scary face, Asta and Noelle agreed at once.

— Well, I'll be resting 'till tomorrow, see you guys when we're ready to leave.

Yuhan said going up the stairs to his room.

— Are you not even worried Yuhan?!

Asta shouted at him, looking at the boy's easy going attitude.

— Not really, a mission is a mission, we just need to get it done quickly and come back to relax.

As he went up the stairs he could hear in the distance the boy's voice screaming back at him.

— Don you think about anything else besides relaxing?!

A night's sleep was essential to Yuhan, at the comfort of his bed, while his mind dreamed peacefully, the night went by, and soon, sunlight reached his window.

When morning came, Yuhan went about his routine, brushing teeth, taking a bath, his clothes changed slightly. Using his grimoire screen, he found that he could equip his character skins, all of his paid and event skins available, he put together [Street wear jeans (Black)] a pair o black jeans with two stars in his knees, [Plain white T-Shirt] and a pair of [Punk High top Sneakers], a few black accessory belts to hold his grimoire and the Black bulls robe over his shoulders.

When meeting with Magna and his teamates, all three of them were shocked when looking at Magna's "broom" with some drastic modifications, two handles on each side of the broom, a horned skull at the front, a wide red seat on top of it.

Isn't it just a flying motorcycle at this point?

 

— This beauty name is, Crazy Cyclone!

Magna said intoducing his broom, Asta's eyes lit up at the sight of the broom, earning some confidente laughs from the delinquent. Yuhan took aout the broom he got at the exam out of his inventory and mounted it.

— I'll be off then, hang in there Magna.

He said before taking off the ground.

— Hey Yuhan! Share the weight with me! Don't pretend you can't hear me! YUHAAAAAN!

Magna's cries were far below the ground when the boy picked up the pace and was on his way to the village. The journey there was a breeze, it didn't take long before the four of them landed on the forest where the wild boars lived.

The sky was a little bit cloudy, and the forest was darker than usual, but the boar hunt couldn't be delayed.

— Well, now it's with you guys... My only job is to get you all back to the base after we're done..

The delinquent mage said sitting at the shade of a tree laying on his back, taking a break and right beside him, sitting cross-legged looking at his grimoire was Yuhan. Asta was sent flying above the trees landing on the clearing near them.

— Shouldn't you be helping too?

Looking at his grimoire, a small map was displayed, some icons walked in the forest, looking for boars at their master's orders.

The strange battle between a flaming boar and a minotaur with a bow-tie was happening in the forest, with a quick jump and a slash from his axe, the boar's head was split, falling on the ground as the flames on his body dimmed.

Using the [Move Unit] function, Yuhan made his monster carry the boar back to them. Meanwhile in another part of the forest, a winged lynx with green fur, stood in the shadows of the trees above, waiting for his pray to come just a little bit closer, pouncing off the tree with his claws ready, another boar was collected.

— I am helping Noelle.

Yuhan said poting at his monsters coming back with the defeated boars with them.

After some time Asta managed to defeat and bring back some boars, piling them on his back, flexing his muscles to carry all the weight.

I 'could' store the boars on the inventory, but why deny him some good exercise right?

— This should make Old man Seihei happy, let's have ourselves a wild boar party!

The delinquent said cheerfully, while carrying a boar, with the extra weight, the four had agreed to walk the way back to Saussy village, on the dirt road at the side of the hill.

—The mayor of Saussy village, do you know him?

Noelle asked him interested.

— Yeah, I've known him for a long time, I'm from Rayaka village just past here.

He said with a smile on his face, like it was a precious, distant memory. Magna recounted his younger days, when he ran around Saussy village trying to take over the mayor, how he used magic to fight everyone and cause troubles non-top until the mayor beat some sense into him.

So you were a delinquent after all...

— Old man Seihei was the one who suggested that I take the Magic Knights Entrnace Exam.

With a thumbs up and a smirk, Magna talked about the old man like he was family to him.

— It's all because of him that I'm here right now! He's the one who showed me what a real man should be.

His smile fades and the boar on his shoulder drops to the ground, being on the far back of the group, Yuhan didn't understand what made them stop, until he looked foward, to what should be their destination.

— The village... is covered with mist!

A dome of mist covered the village, besides the faint outlines of the walls, nothing else could be seen, a strange phenomenon that couldn't happen naturally.
